i took a look on takealot & pricecheck.really am shocked to see how many bluetooth iem options there are in this price range!i can't make any recommendations since i have heard none of them. i did once buy a set in that price range from hifi corp & promptly tossed them in the bin.i would suggest though that it may be worth considering at least a reasonable name brand like the jbl t110 bluetooth set on takealot at just under 500. they do at least claim a longer battery life as well.i had no idea there were so many brands in that market. i have to suspect that a whole bunch of them come out of the same chinese factory.

Thanks Ron, I have subsequently to this post bought a pair of Geist In-Ear Earphones. (The Gareth Cliff Edition). It was on the daily deal two days ago, bought it for R499. It has a music listening battery life of 10 hrs. Have been using it for the past two days at work streaming from my laptop. I got to say I like the 'wirelessness' quite a bit. The comfort of getting up refilling water bottle etc. without needing to take earphones out.

This is my first experience with wireless earphones and I must say I think I will buy another pair very soon to keep a pair at home and work.

And yes I agree - there are a ton of these bluetooth in-ears on the market (what to choose..)
